Getting to know Deborah Downey

Hi there, I'm Deborah! I strive to help my clients feel comfortable and encourage them to tell me if a subject creates too much anxiety for them. My focus I work mostly with adults, but will occasionally see adolescents. I also specialize in women's issues, anxiety, and depression. My approach I utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy along with Gestalt techniques. I am client-focused. My communication style I want to create a safe space for my clients to be able to express themselves freely. My journey to mental healthcare When I look back on my life, I have been a support to my friends since I was in second grade. Classmates always came to me with their problems to help them resolve. My career is an educated continuation of that role. My goals for you Setting of goals is up to the client. As a therapist, I can make suggestions, but in the end, clients are responsible for their own growth and development. Our first session I allot time for clients to ask me any questions they might have regarding me and the therapy experience. I usually ask clients what brought them to therapy and what they expect to receive from therapy.
